In this tutorial repository and associated video you will learn how to combine a Root Motion animated model with a NavMeshAgent. This gives you all the pathing benefits and local avoidance of the Navigation System with the precise animation you expect from Root Motion.
There are multiple ways to approach this solution. In this repository I have chosen what makes the most sense to me - correcting the position of the Root Motion to pathable areas by moving the position of the model back towards the NavMeshAgent when they are out of sync. An alternative that I did not have much success with was to move the Agent faster towards the model's root motion position.

- I'm using Infinity PBR's Gargoyle but this can be replaced with any root motion animated model (such as "The Dude", which is included in this repository as the "enemy").
- If you're using "The Dude" model for the player, be sure to update the Animator paramters to set
"velx""vely"to theVelocity.x&Velocity.yrespectively as is done inEnemyMovement.cs
